"Anna" Hardy Kiwiberry

Anna is one of the most productive and cold-hardy female hardy kiwiberry vines, yielding clusters of small, smooth-skinned green fruits that are intensely sweet and packed with vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. The flavor of this variety is like a tropical fusion of kiwi, grape, with a touch of pineapple. In fact, the name 'Anna' is thought to derive from the Russian word for pineapple, "ananas". Vines are vigorous climbers that require sturdy trellising, and Anna needs a compatible male (like 'Clark') to set fruit. Cold hardy to –25°F and great for fresh eating or recipes.
